Don't Stop Not Believing

Red Sox GM Chaim Bloom basically sat on his hands as baseball's trading deadline passed earlier this week, which is great news for Shank:

The Red Sox’ Chaim Bloom showed at the trade deadline that he doesn’t believe in his own team

In the end, Chaim Bloom decided this team is not worth an additional investment. He did not listen to Rafael Devers, Alex Cora, or a sizable segment of Red Sox Nation calling for reinforcements at the trade deadline. After weeks of debate about “buy or sell,” we got a still life painting of a bowl of oranges.

Bupkis. Nothing. Nada.

(Sorry, bringing on Luis Urías, a 26-year-old Triple A utility infielder who batted .145 for the Brewers this year does not count.)

Do you believe in this surprising Sox team that has played the best ball in the majors since June 30?
